Unclear What the capped number limits, and what waking a task worker does for a user, is not settled.
Claude Code has new checks for remote sessions that run on Anthropic's cloud. A remote session is one that runs on a server rather than on your own computer. The checks decide whether an MCP task worker may be woken up. MCP is the Model Context Protocol, the system Claude Code uses to connect to outside tools. One of the checks looks for a setting called allow_mcp_task_worker_wake.
The new switches are off unless they are switched on remotely. A related number is also read and capped at a fixed maximum. It falls back to 0.
These checks are groundwork for MCP task handling in cloud sessions. They are off unless turned on remotely, so they change nothing until then.
